Default Fuel economy

Hi everyone, I bought an 09 ranger sport 4x4 in april. It has about 18000km. I was getting about 500 km too a tank of fuel, now I'm getting maybe 400 km. Does anyone have any idea as to why the drop-off in fuel economy? My driving habits haven't changed. I do about half and half city/highway driving.

Different qualities of gas could make this change. But I would'nt think that much of a difference. Have you changed the air filter? Thats a start and running a bottle of that fuel injector cleaner would help too to clean out clogs.
